Choosing the right lighting for your home is an important decision. Whether you’re just starting out on the decoration ladder or looking to revamp your style, the lighting you chose can say a lot about your personality and style. We read somewhere that the ideal amount of lights for a room is 8. That includes table lamps, floor lamps, ceiling lights and spot lights. Of course, this depends on the size of the room, but we have the perfect small table and floor lamps to suit smaller rooms. Now, how to use lighting to make your home feel edgy?!

First up is our Corin Table Lamp. This statement lamp is the perfect fitting to upgrade your style. The mix of glass and concrete is striking and intriguing and perfectly exposes the filament bulb inside. We image this lamp sat on some metal or oak shelves next to a vase of eucalyptus - the concrete finish would complement the greens of the eucalyptus perfectly.

Our Kazan Table Lamp is perfect to make a feature out of one of our filament bulbs. We recommend the pear shape, but our giant globe bulb would look amazing as well. The copper finish of this lamp is bang on trend and even the flick switch is made a feature of. Imagine this lamp mixed in with a selection of kitchen utensils or mason jars filled with grains and pasta - the switch is perfectly accessible for this function and it’s the perfect way of illuminating your shelves.

The Cruz Table Lamp is one of the most unique designs we sell. Its form is impressively different and perfect adding a touch of ‘edge’ and character to you home. The angled wood structure is a stark contrast to the perfectly shaped globe shade. The design of this lamp allows you to angle the light exactly where you want in and, it even looks good turned off.

For wall lights we’ve picked our Tabbart Wall Light. This perfect design is so simple and so effective and - it’s perfect if you don’t have any wall fixtures in your home or have little floor space for a floor lamp. Imagine two of these fittings as bedside lamps - instant edgy bedroom.

Our Festoon lighting is suitable for outdoors as well as in and they’re the perfect way to add light to the darkest spots in a room. We love the idea of these lights placed in unusual places like draped over a clothes rail or shelving unit. We love how this kind of lighting can be used around surfaces, not on them.

Steampunk Ceiling Lighting has got to be one of the edgiest ways of lighting your home. The bulk of the fittings are designed to look like piping - the ultimate industrial touch. We love how these fittings look with contrasting and soft fabrics like faux sheepskin and chunky knit blankets.

Our Hock Floor Lamp also has a steampunk character. Similarly, to the steampunk ceiling lights, we love how this lamp looks in softer environments. I’m this lamp in a bohemian living room with long white linen curtains, jute and cotton cushions and a huge cheese plant - D R E A M Y.

The Eddie Floor Lamps are the perfect way to add a sleek and chic element to your home. The matte gold and marble base complement one another beautifully and can instantly add some attitude to a more delicate space. In addition to the complementary colours and finishes, the frosted glass plate perfectly diffuses the light and creates an unexpected touch.

We’ve got a thing for matte black lamps with red flexs. The bold contrast ticks all the boxes for us and our Marley Floor Lamp is one of those lamps. The unique silhouette of this lamp makes it intriguing and the matte black finish is as edgy as it gets.
